I think you answer your own question -
I quite like lemmy, but the barrier to entry is far too high to enjoy the platform. Assume your user doesn't give a flying monkies about federation and things like that, they just want the memes and content - if we can crack that, we might be onto something.
I was just hoping for something more than a meme/news site.
You can get that anywhere. So Lemmy isn't exactly standing out.
